Team villains except me

Chapter 556 The weapon is named

When Norvia brought Abel back to Abosgar, Can rubbed his eyes and kept yawning.

"I've noticed, you always get into trouble at night. You're practically abusing the old flower fairy, Fekris? Long time no see, how did you get yourself into such a state? Being the team's instructor must be quite a challenge."

Chan let Abel stay in the school clinic and sent Norvia away.

“You must have other things to do, like that Abyss Clan member who fainted on the northern continent? Leave Fekris to me, I’m the professional school doctor, she’ll be fine. You’re no use staying here, you might as well send Auchev instead.”

Nolvia didn't agree, but Abel said she didn't need company and also wanted to know about Dooku's condition. What if Dooku fell into a coma like the chairman? Although Abel didn't trust anyone right now, she still trusted Nolvia.

Chan waved his hand as he saw Norvia off.

he muttered.

"I really miss Australia."

Half an hour later, Auchev appeared at the school clinic carrying large and small bags.

"Teacher Can, it's been a long time! I made windmill pastries. Our teacher Abel is very grateful for your help."

When Can saw the freshly made windmill pastries, she suddenly felt less sleepy tonight.

He patted Auchef on the shoulder with a smile, a gesture that showed the closeness of two brothers.

"Why are you being so polite with me? Ochiff, we'll still be fighting side by side tonight..."

……

Norvia met with Cabra before heading to the northern continent.

Julia knew what had happened. She felt that Ellit and the others were too radical. She and Cabra had known each other before, and now they had signed an agreement with Yuto Academy, becoming an inseparable community of interests.

Julia felt from the beginning that Ellit was uncontrollable. Bringing Ellit into Abosgar was Valerio's decision; she didn't approve of it, but she didn't stop it either.

Julia contacted Norvia, but Norvia was waiting for Professor Abel near the northern continent and didn't reply to her messages at all.

Julia felt she needed to reconsider where to place Norvia in the academy after she graduated. A person with a clear weakness is controllable, but her weakness was uncontrollable.

Julia sent someone to tell Ellit not to threaten Cabra, but her messenger said that Ellit wasn't the only one present.

The successor of Ruyou and the prince of Remiaz were also there. They guarded Cabra as if they were protecting a vicious criminal.

Julia had no choice but to go herself.

Of course, she knew that Kabra's influence was also at play. When she met Kabra, Kabra was already like this, which wasn't a bad thing. To gain a foothold in a place like the Northern Continent, Kabra had both the courage and the ability.

It's naive to talk about morality when it comes to personal gain.

Cabra is willing to sacrifice many people for her goals, and she shares the same vision as Cabra. But when it comes to "sending you home," things become much more complicated.

Abosge has many nobles, but at this stage, most students are still just heirs to their families. They may have begun to get involved in family affairs, but they have not yet reached the real center of power.

With so many capable individuals appearing in a small team at the same time, Julia wouldn't let them grow wildly like weeds.

Children at this age are most prone to doing irrational things, wanting to change the world with a burst of enthusiasm. It's good to have such thoughts, but the adult world doesn't have so many right and wrong.

In Julia's eyes, "taking you home" is like a group of teenagers holding a treasure.

They need attention, they need guidance, but we also need to show them kindness so they feel accepted by the world and not become so cynical.

In this respect, Norvia has done a very good job.

But how to prevent Norvia from indulging her teammates is also a very serious problem.

Julia persuaded Hughes and the others to leave, but soon she saw Norvia again.

Julia's expression was very cold.

"Your teammates just left."

“I understand. Dean Julia, I'm sorry to have troubled you. May I speak with Dean Cabra?”

"No. Nolvia, use your brain and think about it."

Cabra emerged from the depths of the room, smiling as she smoothed things over.

“Julia, why are you so serious? Isn’t this water mage your assistant? Be nicer to the people around you. I’m willing to talk to her. I admire your judgment. Since you’re willing to hire her as your assistant, she must have some outstanding qualities. I’ve always valued talent.”

I'm not angry today. I'm capable of protecting myself; these kids can't do anything to me, Julia, don't worry. I won't pursue the matter; let's pretend nothing happened today.

Julia's attitude softened.

"Okay. If you want to talk to her, then I can't stop you."

Julia left. Before leaving, she gave Norvia a warning look.

Nolvia's expression remained shrouded in shadow.

As she carefully arranged the gifts under the Christmas tree, she never imagined the night would last so long. She never imagined that Cabra's words would so resolutely spur Dooku to return to the abyss seeking closure.

Fiana and Spideres had reached the northern continent and met Dooku. Dooku was merely unconscious and had no external injuries. Dooku had the Morning Star pattern on his wrist, a gift from his teacher, Matia. Fiana and Spideres were certain it was Dooku.

Irene and Hugh took Ellit to Garcia's house. Garcia and Irene were still awake, waiting for news from Dooku.

Eileen stayed at Garcia's house, while Hugh returned to Rose Mansion to be with Hazi. Hazi was unaware of what had happened, but he was perceptive enough to know that Auchev's late-night visit to Abosge was not a good sign. Hazi remained uneasy, unable to contact Fiana on the northern continent.

Nolvia was going to the northern continent to pick up Dooku. But before that, there was something she needed to confirm.

Norvia spoke softly.

"Dean Kabra, have you received any special information?"

"Dooku has returned from the abyss, but he's unconscious. Is that special enough for you?"

"not enough."

Norvia was very calm. She looked up, and the blue sea seemed to be on fire.

"If I told you that the northern continent is now not only inhabited by strange beasts, but also by an evil puppeteer who has lived in the abyss for a long time, hiding in the shadows with his research, preparing to overturn the entire situation of the northern continent, what would you think?"

“I don’t have any thoughts. Dooku is just an excellent puppeteer. Julia told me that Dooku has been involved in many projects in Abosgar. Dooku didn’t cause any large-scale damage.”

“It’s not that he can’t, but that he doesn’t want to. Dean Cabra, if Dooku is awake, I should be able to find that evil puppeteer who might be even more powerful than Dooku. If Dooku remains unconscious, I don’t think you can get the answers to the mysteries of the Abyss from an unconscious person.”

Cabra shrugged.

"The mysteries of the Abyss cannot be solved in a day. The evil puppeteer you mentioned is a problem that the army is currently worried about. Our Abyss race is still a marginalized race in the northern continent. We are weak, pitiful, and helpless."

In short, I didn't lose anything today. I helped Dooku quickly return to the Northern Continent, letting him go back to the Abyss to find answers. Then I briefly intercepted you. Although you threatened me, I had the privilege of witnessing the abilities of a pure-blooded succubus. Also, your concern for Dooku truly surprised me. He's clearly a member of our Abyss Clan, yet he feels no belonging to the Northern Continent or the Abyss Clan, but he panicked over a few words about you… Riley, do you have any more trump cards up your sleeve?”

“Yes, Dean Cabra, I always have a backup plan.”

Norvia met Cabra's gaze without flinching. Her back was straight, her eyes deep and unfathomable, revealing a ruthlessness that Cabra could sense.

Becky said he was a crazy person. Crazy, but principled, so he wasn't scary.

Kabra no longer angered Norvia.

"Go to the northern continent. I'm just keeping my promise to Dooku. If you can offer a more interesting collaboration, I can guarantee that Dooku will have to go to the army if he wants to enter the northern continent."

Dooku is free now. As I've said, I'm lenient with my people. Although he may not be able to solve the riddle, he has at least gone to the Abyss to train, and I will set him free. Where he goes after graduation is none of my business; of course, it would be better if he wanted to return to the Northern Continent.

Welcome to Yuto Academy. I can offer you very generous benefits.

Norvia's response to this was...

“Dean Kabra, we have a long future ahead of us.”

Cabra felt like she was being threatened, but the water mage opposite her maintained a very polite smile and spoke very softly.

Cabra paused for a moment, then looked at Norvia.

"The military is not a good partner. What the military can do, I can do too. I think there's some misunderstanding between us. My relationship with the military is so-so. If you side with the military, then the only thing left between us is hostility."

“That’s not how business is done. Dean Cabra, I’m qualified to compare products. You may not know me well, but I’m very cautious about these things.”

"...That evil puppeteer, right? Although I don't know if Dooku has any relatives in the Abyss, I can tell he didn't have a good life before. You can organize the information you have and give it to me, and I will help you find that puppeteer."

“This is not a deal. Dean Cabra, the information I provided is in your favor. If you can find this puppeteer in advance, you will benefit from it. But for me, even without you, I can find this puppeteer through other means.”

Kabra understood.

This water mage has ulterior motives.

She raised an eyebrow, showing some interest.

What are the specific details of the deal you're looking for?

"Our team's information is readily available. By dinner time, I'll know what happened to my teammates that day. I know what kind of technical knowledge you tested Spider-Man on, and I also know that you said some ambiguous things to Dooku that would scare him."

Even in a brief, ten-minute conversation, I can tell what you said to Ellit. For example, 'Truly lives up to its reputation.'

This is interesting because when I asked a friend on the northern mainland to inquire about my teammates' past, she found nothing. Some people clearly knew something, but they just laughed and remained tight-lipped. Perhaps you've heard any rumors as well?

Cabra blinked and smiled.

"This? Pure-blooded succubi are certainly famous, but I don't know much about them. What kind of rumors do you want to know?"

"Would you like to know if I could cooperate with the military?"

"I'm not just giving you a perfunctory answer. I don't know much, but how much do you want to hear?"

"All."

"Of course. You certainly want to hear the whole story. Miss Riley, I really admire you, and I've done a little research on you. The hourly wage for part-time jobs is very low. Why not wait until the holidays and become a guest lecturer at Yuteng Academy, which would be perfect for you and Spider-Girl. You got straight A's, passed the entrance exam for Abbotsger through self-study, became a bodyguard at a young age, and are now the assistant dean... Becky speaks highly of you. She says you're very suitable for studying theology. You have a bright future ahead of you, child."

Cabra's words were well-chosen; Norvia knew it was an invitation.

Her vacation plans were originally to go to the northern continent to resolve the past issues between Ellit and Dooku, but due to the change of venue for the Academy League, these issues are now right in front of her.

There were also vacation plans that had already been prepared... The southern continent was fraught with danger, and it was a miracle that the instructors who were originally supposed to accompany us were still alive.

Norvia did not have a good impression of the northern continent.

Cabra understood the reason for Norvia's hesitation. She changed the subject.

"I plan to establish a branch of Yuteng Academy on the southern continent. The academy has been built, the infrastructure is complete, and students have been enrolling one after another. I have selected some teachers, but it is not enough."

Although the situation on the southern continent is somewhat tense right now, it's all under control. My academy is in a safe area, and you can apply for entry as faculty members of the branch academy; no one will stop you. Winter is too cold, but the southern continent is in its most pleasant season. I will provide you with food and lodging, and your salaries will continue to be paid as usual.”

Norvia remained silent; she needed to consider it further.

Seeing this, Cabra didn't immediately ask for an answer. Instead, she began to recount what she knew about the rumors surrounding pure-blooded succubi.

"Although the northern continent is controlled by the military, there are still some areas that belong to the great nobles. Among those great nobles, there is one with the greatest power, enough to be on par with the military."

This high-ranking nobleman had countless lovers, both men and women. He especially favored non-human races, such as dark elves, sirens, dwarves… and succubi. Despite his many lovers, he had no offspring. Later, his half-succubus lover became pregnant; this was his first child, which he cherished greatly. However, as the child grew, the nobleman discovered that the child possessed astonishing talent. The blond, green-eyed child was a pure-blooded succubus.

Humans and succubi can never produce a pure-blooded succubus.

Only succubi and their offspring have a chance of exhibiting this atavism.

Therefore, this child was not the son of the high-ranking nobleman, but the offspring of his two succubus lovers' affair. The nobleman didn't kill the child; he discovered that the child was an excellent weapon.

The weapon's name is Elrit.
